MY BIO

I was born in Seattle, learned to talk in Texas, and grew up in LA.  I moved to the Bay Area in 1998.  I've been married to my wife Wendy for 12 years.  We met in elementary school and now have two children Micah (2) and Kaia (0).  I attempt to play basketball, volleyball, the piano and guitar.  I have a love/hate relationship with the LA Lakers.   I could view art and listen to jazz (John Mclaughlin, Coltrane, etc.) and loud screamo/metalish bands (Thrice, Saosin, Underoath, Coheed and Cambria, Mars Volta, Tool, etc.) all day.   I have played in two now-dead bands (Remnant and Left Within), though those days are gone, I'll always have the memories, PRS guitars, and Mesa/Boogie half-stack.   I attended Long Beach State(1995-1998), and graduated from San Jose State (1998-2000) with a BA in Psychology, and a Minor in Communications. I received my Masters of Divinity from Western Seminary , San Jose and am Ordained to Word and Sacrament through the Evangelical Covenant Church.  My wife and I are in the process of finding a new ministry to lead.

The sign in the picture is of an actual intersection about 10 minutes from my house! My sister took it and gave it to me for my birthday.  How many Jeffrey Budd intersections might there be in the world?  Probably not many.
